L3Harris Technologies has not yet received a contract from the US government to produce and deliver its new Vehicle-Agnostic Modular Palletized ISR Rocket Equipment (VAMPIRE) to Ukraine, but the company told Janes it should be able to have the never-before fielded kit ready by May 2023.

When the Biden administration announced a new, USD2.98 billion weapons package bound for Kyiv on 24 August it included an unspecified number of VAMPIRE systems to shoot down drones. At the time, Under Secretary of Defense for Policy Colin Kahl did not disclose which company was producing the weapon but said it is a kinetic system that uses “small missiles” to shoot down aerial drones.

L3Harris confirmed it is producing this truck-mounted kit, which includes a four-pod launcher for laser-guided munitions such as the AGR-20 Advanced Precision Kill Weapon System (APKWS) missile.
